GPT4GEO: How a Language Model Sees the World's Geography
Jonathan Roberts, Timo Lüddecke, Sowmen Das, Kai Han, Samuel Albanie
GPT4GEO provides a broad categorisation of the geographic capabilities of GPT-4 and what it knows about the world without access to the Internet. This repo is structured as follows, including the prompts for the GPT4GEO project experiments:

Prompts
We include example templates of the prompt struture used in each of the GPT4GEO experiments, following the same order as in the paper.
Descriptive Experiments
Population, life expectancy and CO2 emissions
e.g., for Population:
For each of the following countries, provide their population in <Year> as a
python list in the following format:
[Population of Country 1, # Country 1
Population of Country 2, # Country 2, ...]
[<Country 1>, <Country 2>, ...].
Area and height
e.g., for Area:
For each of the following countries, provide the land area in sq. km as of
<Year>. Provide the areas as a python list in the following format:
[Area of Country 1, # Country 1
Area of Country 2, # Country 2, ...]
[<Country 1>, <Country 2>, ...]
Location
In a code block, provide a python list of tuples for the latitude and
longitude coordinates for each of these settlements - e.g., [(Lat,Lon), #
Settlement 1 ...]. Maintain the same order.
[<Country 1>, <Country 2>, ...]
Distance
What are the straight-line distances between the following pairs of cities?
Output a csv list of the distances only in km.
<City 1 (Country) > to <City 2 (Country)>
... [repeated for all 40 pairs]
Topography
Provide a rough estimate of the elevation at the following coordinates to
the best of your knowledge. Answer directly with a comma-separated list of
elevations in meters only but without indicating the unit in the output.
Outlines
Please provide the lat/lon coordinates for the outline of <X> as a Python
list of tuples, consisting of approximately 50 points arranged clockwise.
Due to output length limitations, only the coordinates should be returned.
Languages
Name all countries that match <language criteria>. Provide the output as a
python list.
Application-Centric Experiments
Route planning
Give me a step-by-step travel route from <Start Location> to <End Location>
[(optional) using only <Mode of Transport> ].
Navigation
You start your journey in <Location A>. You take a <vehicle> and go
<direction> for <duration>. Where are you now?
Networks
Provide a list of the names of the stations in order on the Hong Kong MTR
<Line Name> Line.
Give the latitude and longitude coordinates for each of these as a python
list of tuples. Maintain the same order.
Itinerary planning
I am currently in <Source Location>. I want to visit <Destinations>, and
I have a budget of <Budget>. Provide a day-by-day step-by-step detailed
itinerary plan for the whole trip with a breakdown of specific places to
visit, foods to try out, as well as the required time, and money I need.
Provide a breakdown of how to travel to the destinations and come back home.
Landmarks
What famous landmark is at this location: <Lat/Lon Coordinates> ? Provide
the SVG code for a detailed outline of the landmark.
Multi-criteria place retrieval
Name all places in the world where <X>. Provide a python list in the format
[0.00000N, 0.00000E].
Supply chains
e.g., for Semiconductors
I want to construct a map of the semiconductor supply chain, end-to-end.
Please provide the lat/lon coordinates and names of the key elements in the
supply chain, including design, manufacturing, materials, equipment + tools,
etc. If you don’t know any coordinates exactly just estimate, every point
needs coordinates.
Natural world
e.g., bird migrations
I want to plot the migratory routes of various bird species. Please provide
the latitude and longitude coordinates of the migratory route of the
<bird species>. Indicate the start and finish and provide coordinates for
intermediate steps if necessary. If multiple routes exist, provide separate
lists of coordinates. Output the coordinates as a python list of tuples.
